ABSTRACT- Seismic analysis ofhighriseRCCframedstructure
has been carried out considering different types of bracing
system this system serves as one of the component in RC
framed buildings to resist the lateral load to increasing the
strength, stability, and stiffness. In proposed problem G+20
story building is analyzed for different bracing system such as
inverted V brace, K, X, and diagonal brace in different seismic
zone condition ( ZONE II, III, IV and V) by using STAAD PRO
V8i software. However X bracing frame system is found to be
most economical.
Key Words: Base shear, storey drift, displacement, steel
bracings, seismic behavior
1. INTRODUCTION:
A building whose height creates different condition
in the design, construction, used in common building of a
certain region and period. A structure becauseofitsheight is
affected by the lateral forces due to an wind or earthquake
action to an extent that they play an important role in the
structural design.
2. DEMAND FOR HIGH RISE BUILDING:
1. Scarcity of land in urban areas.
2. Increasing demand for business and residential
space.
3. Economic growth.
4. Technological advancements.
5. Innovations in structural systems.
6. Desire for aesthetics in urban settings.
7. Concept of city skyline.
3. BRACE FRAME SYSTEM
Brace frame to develop their resistance to lateral force
by the bracing action of diagonal members. The braces
induce forces in the associated beams and columns so that
all work together like a truss with all members subjected to
stresses that are primarily axial.
3.1 DIFFERENT TYPES OF BRACED FRAME STRUCTURE:
1. Inverted v brace
2. Diagonal brace
3. K brace
4. V brace
5. X brace
1. Inverted V brace: These bracings are designed for both
tension and compression forces. the floor level connection
may use gusseted plate connection on X brace frame.
2. Diagonal brace: is a structural component of just about
building. It provides lateral stability &preventingcollapseof
a wall, deck, roof, etc.
3. K brace: K brace members are designed to stabilize the
front suspension during hard connecting, allowing for
improving control and handling these brace reinforce the
cross members help to keep the lower control arm form
distorting during extreme condition.
4. V brace : Two diagonal members forming a V shape
extend downwards from top two corners of horizontal
member and meet at centre point on the lower horizontal
member V bracing it reduced the buckling capacity of the
compression brace so that it less than the tension yield
capacity of the tension brace
5. X brace: Connection for X brace is located at beam to
column joint. The restriction of space in these areas may
have an impact on the mechanical and plumbing system as
well as some architectural features.

3.1.1 ADVATAGES OF BRACING SYSTEM
1. Braced frames are applicable to all kindofstructure
likes bridges, aircrafts, cranes, buildings and
electrical transmission line tower.
2. It gives better strength, stability, and stiffness.
3. Providing the structural integrityduringfabrication
and installation
4. Transmission of horizontal load to the foundation.
5. These bracings are easy to fabricate at construct no
lots of knowledge or skill is needed.
4. OBJECTIVE OF PROJECT
In this project G+20 RCC without braced frame
structure is analyzed under the effect of lateral forces such
as seismic forces for different zones (ZONE-II, III, IV, and V)
and considering different bracing system.
4.1 Type of structure analyzed:
1. RCC Bare frame without bracing system.
2. RCC Bare frame with bracing system.
In this project, analysis of structure is done using
STAAD PRO V8i., the comparison of structural behavior is
observed such as joint displacement of building, storeydrift,
Base shear, Axial load at base and providing perfect model
with perfect brace system to this type of building after
results and discussion.

5.1. VISWANATH K. G, PRAKASH K. B, ANAND DESAI.
(2010)
The seismic performance of reinforced concrete
building rehabilitated using concentric steel bracing is
investigated. These bracing provide peripheral column. a
storey building is analyzed for seismic zone 4 as per IS 1893
– 2002 using software.. The % reduction in lateral
displacement is found out. X type of steel brace is
significantly contributed to the stiffness andreducetheinter
storey drift of the frame.
Steel bracing reduce flexural and shear transfer to
the axial load. X brace system will have minimum possible
bending moment compare to other bracing element.
5.2. SHALK, DHOKANE, K.K.PATHAN. (DECEMBER 28-
2016)
A weak storey is one in which the lateral stiffness is
less than 70% of that in the storey above or it can less than
80% of the 3 storey above the reduction of lateral deflection
of structure bracing is provided. This paper aims to find out
the effect of bracings on soft storey of steel building in this
study, G+ 9 steel frames are modeled with different
combination of soft storey using software.
the displacement of the building decreases depend
upon the bracing system maximum reduction in deflection
accrues in 9th storey as soft storey steel building compare to
5 the storey as soft storey steel framed structure the useofX
brace reduce the storey drift by 60-90% in all bracing
pattern compare to un braced building. Maximum reduction
in axial force is observed in G+9 type of building as compare
to G+5 type building.

carried out for the behavior in of G+20 stories R.C Frame
building with regular plan. Floor height providedas3mt.the
grid sparing in +X direction 3.5mt and +Z direction is 4.5mt.
The models ore carried out by using STAAD PRO V8i
software with different type of bracing system. They are
inverted V brace, diagonal, K brace, V brace and X bracewith
geometrical types are consider for analysis in different
seismic zone (ZONE-11, ZONE-111,ZONE-IV, AND ZONE-V)
Results in parameter taken are Base shear,
Displacement, Storey drift. From using software. IS code
used for seismic analysis is IS 456-2000 for the gravity load,
and IS 1893-2002 for the earthquake load. IS 875 part-1and
part-2 is used for the design purposes.
1. Draw a plan G+20 RCC building using
AUTOCAD software and that import in STAAD
PRO V8i.
2. Apply support condition to all structural
members.
3. Calculation of dead load and live load for

4. Designing of structure using IS 456-2000.
5. Checking the behavior after analysis and

CONCLUSIONS
1. The displacement is reduced by 75.19% forVbrace
frame system & Diagonal brace frame system
(74.90%) comparedtoinvertedV brace(72.86%), K
brace (74.85%), V brace (70.17%), in +Z direction
for ZONE-V
2. The base shear is increased by 17.64% for X brace
frame system & very less to K brace (11.5%),
compared to diagonal brace (11.76%), V brace
(11.6%), and inverted V brace (11.76%) inZONE-II.
3. The storey drift is reduced by 74.87% for X brace
frame system & inverted V brace frame system
(70.41%), compared to diagonal brace (62.09%), K
brace (61.79%), V brace (66.38%) in ZONE-IV.
For the structure analyzed, it is found that zone-V gives
better results for the analysis as it gives more strength,
stability and stiffnessto thestructurecomparedtoother
zones. However X bracing frame system is found to be
most economical.
